Hey, you?

Yeah - you, chuckles. What the fuck made you think that a thread discussing the myriad ways in which authors show asses and have issues - one in which there had been, up 'til that point, none of this disparagement shit, and one in a very well-thought-out post in re: Racefail, to boot - was the right place to go "Butbutbutbutbut I don't see any sexism or misogyny or problematic material in Alan Moore's works!" and heavily imply that anyone who did see it was just looking for something to get offended about?

What the actual, seafaring, candy-coated FUCK made you think that was the right time or the right place!?

SERIOUSLY.

Flossing christ. Is it that hard to STOP AND THINK A SECOND. Even I, with my attention deficit and impulse control, can manage to stop and think about shit - and yes, sometimes one DOES have to stop and think about shit!

I sincerely hope that you remain ignored and unengaged because frankly? You lost the war before you fired a single ROUND, child. Your position is nothing but a losing one, even if you think you've won, because 'you're just IMAGINING IT!' is a copout lazy bullshit claim full of fail and lose.

Jesus H., you're stupid. You get the punchy!Six icon.

I can't do this anymore, man, I need tea before I start to throw shit.

That was a beautiful rant. Truly. I think "What the actual, seafaring, candy-coated FUCK" is my new favorite phrase.

Also, I agree with you a billionty.

Oh dear Christ. I love Alan Moore's stuff but anyone who doesn't see anything jinky or questionable going down is just maybe too stupid to live.

Only yesterday, during a discussion of female characters in Moore's works prompted by our seeing Watchmen, a guy friend of mine told me 'Honestly, I don't want anyone to know that I'm even aware Lost Girls exists. There's just no excuse for it.'

The other side of that is Promethea, which is, IMO, the most awesome comic ever *and* the best primer on the Western magical tradition... but nobody bats a thousand, ya know?

I thought Lost Girls sounded cool, until I heard a synopsis. And I was like, "No thanks, think I'll stick to Fables..."

I really want to know what was going through his head when he wrote Lost Girls.

*looks up Lost Girls on the wiki*

Yup, I'm staying the fuck away from that shit.

Otoh, 'Halo Jones' was full of win and great female characters. I think some men get creepier as they get older, cos 'Lost Girls' is not so much the same as Jones.

No sexism or misogyny in Alan Moore's works? Um, seriously?

He may not be as openly sexist as Frank Miller in his more mainstream stuff, but come the fuck on.

...yeah. There's a fine line separating 'they meant well' from plain stupidity and not only did that person cross it, they ended up falling into the chasm of St. Moron of Idiotia a few feet farther on.

Anyway, my sympathies for having to deal with such a clueless dork. Let me offer you some green tea with a bit of honey and lemon.

And if the OP would like a variety to choose from, I offer honeybush black tea with a shot of agave for sweetening.

It's like a doubly-whammy of failure.

What version of Moore's material has this person read?
